oljeholdige

Oljeholdige is a Norwegian compound adjective meaning containing oil or rich in oil. The term is formed by combining olje ('oil') with holdig, a suffix meaning having or containing. It is used across technical and everyday contexts to describe substances that include oil as a component or have a notable oil content.

In geology and petroleum geology, the phrase oljeholdige bergarter or oljebærende bergarter refers to rock formations that contain petroleum or recoverable hydrocarbons. In agriculture and food technology, oljeholdige frø denotes seeds that accumulate oils, such as flax, rapeseed, or sunflower seeds. The term also appears in chemical and industrial contexts to describe lubricants, solvents, or mixtures that contain oil, for example oljeteholde produkter or other oil-containing components.

Etymology and usage notes: Oljeholdige is a Norwegian adjective derived from olje and holdig, used to describe nouns it modifies. In situations where one wants to emphasize the amount of oil, more precise terms such as oljeinnhold (oil content) may be used. The term is generally neutral and formal, suitable for scientific, technical, and educational writing.
